How does it work, in Traditional Chinese Medicine terms?

In Traditional Chinese Medicine, there's a well-known saying that sums up the theory behind this therapy: where energy flows freely, there is no discomfort; where it's blocked, discomfort can build. Bioenergetic meridian massage works with this idea, using the Fohow device to work gently along the body's meridian pathways to support that sense of free-flowing balance.

Who tends to book this kind of massage?

Clients come to NOMA'S for all sorts of reasons: some are simply looking to unwind after a stressful week, others enjoy it as a regular part of their self-care routine alongside their usual hairstyling appointment, and some are just curious to try something a little different. Whatever brings you in, each session is tailored around how you're feeling that day.

Do you use any products during or after a session?

Yes, sessions may include a specially formulated meridian energy balm, applied to help finish the treatment with a nourishing, soothing touch. If you'd like to know more about what's used, just ask during your consultation.

What is Bioenergetic Meridian Massage (BEM)?

Bioenergetic Meridian Massage (BEM) is a non-invasive wellness therapy that uses low-frequency pulsed electrical stimulation alongside principles inspired by traditional meridian-based practices. The treatment is designed to provide gentle sensory and muscular stimulation and to promote relaxation and general wellbeing.

What electrical technology does BEM use?

The BEM system works with:

  • Low-frequency, pulsed, complex-modulated current

  • Frequencies up to 3.5 kHz

  • Cellular-level output of approximately 8 volts (matching natural cellular biocurrents)

  • Adjustable operating voltage up to 70 V

Because these parameters closely resemble the body’s own electrical activity, the treatment is considered highly compatible with natural biological processes.

How deep does Bioenergetic Meridian Massage work?

Low-frequency pulsed current can penetrate tissues up to approximately 14 cm, allowing BEM to influence:

  • Muscles and fascia

  • Connective tissue

  • Blood vessels

  • Internal organs (via reflex and meridian pathways)

This makes BEM more than a surface-level treatment—it works at a deeper functional level.

When Bioenergetic Meridian Massage is recommended?

  • Insomnia;

  • Gastrointestinal disorders;

  • Lack of appetite;

  • Constipation, hemorrhoids;

  • Skin itching;

  • Rheumatic diseases;

  • Arthritis;

  • Pain in the lower back and legs;

  • Injuries;

  • Soft tissue damage;

  • Bone damage;

  • Dizziness;

  • Tinnitus;

  • Anemia;

  • Hypertension;

  • Hyperglycemia;

  • Diabetes;

  • Ischemic diseases;

  • Climacteric syndrome;

  • Overwork.

How many massage sessions are recommended?

The bioenergy massager is designed for health prevention and maintenance. It helps cleanse the body of toxins, improve blood circulation and metabolism, release energy channels, regulate Yin-Yang energies, activate cells, and strengthen immunity. This enhances the body's self-healing ability. A minimum of 7 sessions is recommended based on TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine) principles. The duration may vary depending on individual health conditions. Regular use helps maintain good health, beauty, and youth.

Why do muscles twitch during BEM treatment?

Muscle twitching or gentle contractions are a normal and expected response. They indicate that neuromuscular pathways are being activated. This can help:

  • Release deep muscle tension

  • Improve muscle relaxation

  • Support natural spinal and postural adjustments

The body is responding actively, not passively.
